Peaceful lake getaway

We had a wonderful stay on the lake! It was so nice to have a place to relax and get away from the intensity of CASV. All the access to kayaks and canoes was a wonderful bonus.

Nice break from the park

We were there to watch our son play at Dreams park and it was exactly what we were looking for. A break for us to relax by the lake. Everything we needed plus a bald eagle!

Cooperstown Week

Great place to stay if in town for the Cooperstown tournament or just looking for a cabin on a lake. It’s as listed and check in was great! Beautiful mornings and evening relaxing on the lake with fishing jumping everywhere. Only issue is it’s about a 15-20min drive to CASV and you might have to commute a couple times a day. Overall, I would definitely recommend it!

Beautiful, Quiet Retreat in a Great Location

We stayed here with our younger son, while our oldest was playing at All Star Village. It was conveniently located to scoot back and forth for games, and gave our youngest a dream vacation week of fishing (too many perch and sunfish caught to count!), swimming and kayaking. You can’t beat the view and the cove is quiet and relaxing. The house has a great layout, is well stocked, and has lots for kids to do inside and out - we even caught the ice cream truck coming by one night! We loved our stay and would highly recommend to anyone coming into town for baseball.

Perfect Lake Home

Great owners and communications was perfect throughout. My son was in Cooperstown Baseball Tournament and home was perfect to keep my 14 yr old son busy. Fishing, swimming and other activities was super easy from this home on the water. They had all you needed. 5 Stars...Thank you for a great stay and we will be back. Bill and Antoinette.

Perfect lake house!

This was the perfect lake house for our trip to Cooperstown! It was the most beautiful, peaceful setting and only a 15 minute east drive to CASV. The cottage was well stocked, clean, with tons of water toys. Would highly recommend this house for cooperstown families or anyone looking for a great vacation!

Perfect Lake House!!!

We were in town while my son played at All Star Village and this home could not have been more perfect. A 15 minute drive to the fields and so many things for my other 2 kids to do when they weren’t watching baseball. The canoes and kayaks provided were awesome with a nice big yard for them to play in as well. We were able to relax and make meals at the house- it worked out perfectly for our family.

Cooperstown Dream Park Stay

Stayed here while one son was playing at Dream park. 18 minute drive that was super easy. Great house and lake property to rest up and entertain two younger children. Enjoyed spare time on the row boat, fishing and throwing ball in the yard. Comfortable and cozy furnishings made this an easy stay.

Baseball vacay-peaceful setting!

Great rental on a scenic part of the lake. The mornings are gorgeous as peered through the round window on the second floor! Stunning! Please upgrade the badminton set. It wasn’t functional for us at all. Also, a great addition would be cornhole (bags) for the big yard you have.

Perfect lake house

The house is situated halfway between Allstar Village and Dream Park. About 15mins to each. I was here to watch my son ay baseball. The house is quiet and cozy. The cove is about 10 steps from the house which made the stay that much better. The house has fishing rods, kayaks and canoes. Susan was a very responsive. I would recommend this house to anyone here for baseball or just a quick weekend getaway.

Beautiful place to relax in between baseball games

The house was amazing we loved the view of the lake from the bedroom door we used the canoe that was in the garage and the aluminum boat that was outside by the dock. My son and I caught our first small mouth bass, and we lost a giant highly recommend this place it was about 15 minutes from Cooperstown dream park through beautiful country road views

Sanctuary

We were looking for a nice place to rest between games at All-Star Village but it was so much more than that. It was a sanctuary- the section of the lake is one of the most places I’ve ever been. I’d come back here (from California) just to stay at the house honestly.

Great hideaway from a week of baseball!

We had a great stay while my son was playing at All Star Village in June. My daughter and husband enjoyed fishing between games and we all made use of the canoe and kayaks. Waking up to the lake view each morning was a real treat! It was about a 15 min drive to the fields which was perfect. The house was very clean and kitchen was well stocked. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Beautiful setting on Goodyear Lake

We stayed here while our son was playing at All-Star Village (10-15 minute drive). The setting is absolutely gorgeous, and the house is comfortable, clean, and very well-stocked. We enjoyed paddling the canoe and kayaks around the lake. The only thing I wished I knew ahead of time is that you can't really swim right off the dock in the cove itself (too weedy and mucky), but if you paddle out into the main part of the lake, you can dive in there. Apart from that, we would definitely stay here again. It's a beautiful, peaceful, comfortable, and well-kept property. I would definitely recommend it.

Beautiful and serene lake house

We came because our son was at the Cooperstown All star village and we almost didn't want to leave because this house was so nice and relaxing. It was a beautiful spot and the lake was a quiet peaceful section with fish jumping out of the water a few people fishing and boating and in general just beautiful views all around. Cooperstown was wonderful but before and after a long day at the baseball fields it was really nice to settle into some peace and quiet here. Our only regret was that we didn't stay longer to fish and kayak and enjoy the house more once our son finished playing. If we go back, we would stay here again in a heartbeat. Host and house were perfect!!!!!
